• Using Tassman as an instrument plug-in
  The Tassman integrates seamlessly into the industry most popular multi-track recording and sequencing environments both as a virtual instrument plugin. The Tassman works as any other plug-in in these environments so we recommend that you refer to your sequencer documentation in case you have problem to run the Tassman as a plug-in.
  
  
• Using MIDI Links
  Every parameter on Tassman's interface can be linked to an external MIDI controller. To assign a MIDI Link, right-click (Control+click on Mac) on a control (knob, button, or slider) and a contextual menu will appear. Select Learn MIDI Link. Move a knob or slider on your MIDI controller. This will link the control of the Tassman to the MIDI controller you just moved.

  MIDI program changes have been assigned to the factory Performances. You can therefore use program changes to explore the Tassman library.
